Travel isn't, in my opinion, something you should 'have done', it's something you should be doing. I'm not a big fan of the take a year out, travel the world, then tick it off your list. Travel anything from a week to a month every year until you're too old/sick to get out of bed. My 86 year old grandmother recently flew across the Atlantic to visit family.
The world is not a static place. That thing you really want to see might not exist a few years from now. You can visit the same city a half dozen times and have a half dozen different experiences of the place because the world has changed it between visits. I'd rather take a few long weekends every year than save up for one big trip sometime a decade from now, but that's just me.
